DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

Embodiments will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, wherein like reference numerals designate corresponding or identical elements throughout the various drawings.

First Embodiment

In the following, a first embodiment of the present invention is described with reference to FIG. 1-11. As illustrated in FIG. 1, in a wiring board 10 of the present embodiment, build-up layers (20, 20) are respectively laminated on front and back surfaces of a core substrate 11. In this specification, an “upper” side refers to an upper side in a lamination direction of each of build-up layers (20, 20) with a core substrate 11 as a reference. That is, for an F surface (11F), which is a front side surface of the core substrate 11, the “upper” side is an upper side in FIG. 1; and for a B surface (11B), which is a back side surface of the core substrate 11, the “upper” side is a lower side in FIG. 1.

The core substrate 11 is formed of an insulating member, and core conductive layers 12 are respectively formed on the front and the back surfaces of the core substrate 11. The core substrate 11 has a thickness of 30-60 μm.

The build-up layer 20 on the F surface (11F) side of the core substrate 11, and the build-up layer 20 on the B surface (11B side of the core substrate 11, are each formed by alternately laminating three insulating resin layers 21 and three build-up conductive layers 22 from the core substrate 11 side. hereinafter, as appropriate, a build-up conductive layer 22 on an outermost insulating resin layer 21 is referred to as an outermost conductive layer 33, and a build-up conductive layer 22 on a non-outermost insulating resin layer 21 is referred to as a non-outermost conductive layer 32.

The insulating resin layers 21 are each, for example, a prepreg (a resin sheet obtained by impregnating a core material with a resin). Further, the insulating resin layers 21 each have a thickness of 30-60 μm, which is substantially the same as the thickness of the core substrate 11.

Multiple via holes (11H, 21H) are formed in the core substrate 11 and the insulating resin layers 21. The via holes (11H, 21H) are filled with plating and multiple via conductors (11D, 21D) (corresponding to “filled vias” of the present invention) are formed. Due to these via conductors (11D, 21D), two conductive layers sandwiching the core substrate 11 or an insulating resin layer 21 (that is, the two core conductive layers 12, a core conductive layer 12 and a build-up conductive layer 22, or two build-up conductive layers 22) are connected to each other. Further, the via holes (21H) formed in the insulating resin layers 21 each have a tapered shape that is gradually reduced in diameter toward the core substrate 11, and the via holes (11H) formed in the core substrate 11 each have a tapered shape that is gradually reduced in diameter from the F surface (11F) toward the B surface (11B).

Solder resist layers (25, 25) are respectively laminated on the outermost build-up conductive layers (22, 22) (outermost conductive layers (33, 33)) of the build-up layers (20, 20) on front and back sides of the core substrate 11. Multiple pad holes (25H, 25H) are formed in the solder resist layers (25, 25). Of the outermost build-up conductive layers (22, 22), portions exposed from the pad holes (25H, 25H) become pads (26, 26).

In wiring board 10 of the present embodiment, all of the core conductive layers 12 and the build-up conductive layers 22 each have a two-layer structure that includes a copper foil layer (12A, 32A, or 33A) (corresponding to a “metal foil layer” of the present invention) formed on the core substrate 11 or an insulating resin layer 21, and a plating layer (12B, 32B, or 33B) formed on the copper foil layer. The copper foil layer (33A) of an outermost conductive layer 33 has a thickness of about 7-10 μm, whereas the copper foil layer (32A) of a non-outermost conductive layer 32 has a thickness of about 1-5 μm. The copper foil layer (33A) of an outermost conductive layer 33 is thicker than the copper foil layer (32A) of a non-outermost conductive layer 32. The thickness of the copper foil layer (33A) of an outermost conductive layer 33 is 2 or more times the thickness of the copper foil layer (32A) of a non-outermost conductive layer 32. The copper foil layer (12A) of a core conductive layer 12 preferably has substantially the same thickness as the copper foil layer (33A) of an outermost conductive layer 33. Further, the conductive layers (12, 32, 33) each have substantially the same total thickness, which is 10-20 μm.

As illustrated in FIG. 2A and 2B, side surfaces of wiring patterns in the conductive layers (12, 32, 33) are recessed. A maximum depth of the side surfaces of the wiring patterns in the outermost conductive layers 33 and the core conductive layers 12 is 10-20% of the thickness of each of the conductive layers (12, 33), whereas a maximum depth of the side surfaces of the wiring patterns in the non-outermost conductive layers 32 is 10% or less of the thickness of each of the conductive layers 32. The side surfaces of the wiring patterns of the outermost conductive layers 33 and the core conductive layers 12 are more recessed than the side surfaces of the wiring patterns in the non-outermost conductive layers 32. The side surfaces of the wiring patterns in the conductive layers (12, 32, 33) are etching surfaces formed by etching.

Next, a method for manufacturing the wiring board 10 of the present embodiment is described.

(1) As illustrated in FIG. 3A, a core base material 50 is prepared that is obtained by laminating a copper foil (11C) on both front and back surfaces of the core substrate 11 that is formed of an epoxy resin or a BT (bismaleimide triazine) resin and a reinforcing material such as a glass cloth. The core base material 50 is conveyed, for example, using belt conveyor or the like.

(2) As illustrated in FIG. 3B, the via holes (11H) each penetrating the copper foil (11C) on the F surface (11F) side and the core substrate 11 are formed by irradiating, for example, CO₂ laser to the core base material 50 from the F surface (11F) side.

(3) An electroless plating treatment is performed. An electroless plating film (not illustrated in the drawings) is formed on the copper foil (11C) and in the via holes (11H),

(4) An electrolytic plating treatment. As illustrated in FIG. 3C, the via holes (11H) are filled with electrolytic plating and the via conductors (11D) are formed, and an electrolytic plating film 35 is formed on the electroless plating film on the copper foil (11C). Hereinafter, the copper foil (11C), the electroless plating film and the electrolytic plating film 35 are collectively referred to as a conductor film 34.

(5) As illustrated in FIG. 3D, an etching resist 43 of a predetermined pattern is formed on the conductor film 34.

(6) Etching is performed. As illustrated in FIG. 4A, of the conductor film 34, a portion exposed from the etching resist 43 is removed.

(7) The etching resist 43 is peeled off. As illustrated in FIG. 4B, the core conductive layers 12 are each formed by the remaining conductor film 34. As a result, a state is achieved in which the core conductive layers (12, 12) on the front and back sides of the core substrate 11 are connected to each other by the via conductors (11D). Of each of the core conductive layers 12, the above-described plating layer (12B) is formed from the remaining portions of the electroless plating film and the electrolytic plating film 35.

(8) As illustrated in FIG. 4C, on the core conductive layer 12 on each of the front and back surfaces of the core substrate 11, a prepreg as an insulating resin layer 21 and a thin copper foil 37 that is thinner than the copper foil (11C) are laminated, and then, the resulting substrate is hot-pressed. In this case, spaces between portions of the core conductive layer 12 are filled with the prepreg.

(9) As illustrated in FIG. 5A, the multiple via holes (21H, 21H) are formed by irradiating CO₂ laser to the insulating resin layers (21, 21) on the front and back sides of the core substrate 11, the insulating resin layers (21, 21) being each formed from a prepreg.

(10) An electroless plating treatment is performed. An electroless plating film (not illustrated in the drawings) is formed on the interlayer insulating layers (21, 21) and in the via holes (21H, 21H).

(11) As illustrated in FIG. 5B, a plating resist 40 of a predetermined pattern is formed on the electroless plating film on the thin copper foil 37.

(12) An electrolytic plating treatment is performed. As illustrated in FIG. 6A, the via holes (21H, 21H) are filled with plating and the via conductors (21D, 21D) are formed. Further, electrolytic plating films (39, 39) are formed on portions of the electroless plating film (not illustrated in the drawings) on the thin copper foils (37, 37), the portions being exposed from the plating resist 40.

(13) The plating resist 40 is peeled off and the electroless plating film (not illustrated in the drawings) and the copper foil 37, which are below the plating resist 40, are removed. As illustrated in FIG. 6B, one build-up conductive layer 22 as a non-outermost conductive layer 32 is formed on each insulating resin layer 21 on the front and back sides of the core substrate 11 by the remaining electrolytic plating film 39, electroless plating film and thin copper foil 37. On each of the front and back sides of the core substrate 11, a portion of the build-up conductive layer 22 and the core conductive layer 12 are connected by the via conductors (21D). Of each of the build-up conductive layers 22, the above-described plating layer (32B) is formed from the remaining portions of the electroless plating film and the electrolytic plating film 39.

(14) By the same processing as described in the above (8)-(13), as illustrated in FIG. 7, on each of the front and back sides of the core substrate 11, one insulating resin layer 21 and one build-up conductive layer 22 are further formed and a state is achieved in which the build-up conductive layers 22 are connected to each other by the via conductors (21D).

(15) As illustrated in FIG. 8, on each of the outermost insulating resin layers (21, 21) on the front and back sides of the core substrate I1. a prepreg as an insulating resin layer 21 and a thick copper foil 38 having the same thickness as the copper foil (11C) are laminated, and the resulting substrate is hot-pressed. In this case, spaces between portions of the build-up conductive layer 22 below the insulating resin layer 21 are filled with the prepreg.

(16) By the same processing as described in the above (2)-(7), as illustrated in FIG. 9, on each of the front and back sides of the core substrate 11, a build-up conductive layer 22 as an outermost conductive layer 33 is formed and a state is achieved in which this build-up conductive layer 22 and the lower build-up conductive layer 22 as a non-outermost conductive layer 32 are connected to each other by the via conductors (21D).

(17) As illustrated in FIG. 10, on each of the front and back sides of the core substrate 11, the solder resist layer 25 is laminated on the outermost conductive layer 33.

(18) As illustrated in FIG. 11, on each of the front and back sides of the core substrate 11, the tapered pad holes (25H) are formed at predetermined places in the solder resist layer 25; and, of the outermost conductive layer 33, portions exposed from the pad holes become the pads 26.

(19) On each of the pads 26, a nickel layer, a palladium layer and a gold layer are laminated in this order and a metal film 41 illustrated in FIG. 1 is formed. As a result, the wiring board 10 is completed. Instead of the metal film 41, it is also possible to perform surface treatment using OSP (preflux).

The above-described method for forming the core conductive layers 12 of the core substrate 11 and the outermost conductive layers 33 is referred to as a subtractive method, and the method for forming the non-outermost conductive layers 32 is referred to as a modified semi-additive method. Further, side surfaces of wiring patterns of the core conductive layers 12 and the outermost conductive layers 33 (which are formed using the subtractive method in which there are many portions removed by etching, that is, etching time is long) are more recessed than side surfaces of wiring patterns of the non-outermost conductive layers 32.

The description about the structure and the manufacturing method of the wiring board 10 of the present embodiment is as given above. Next, an example of use and an operation effect of the wiring board 10 are described. The wiring board 10 of the present embodiment is used by forming solder bumps on the pads 26 and mounting and soldering an electronic component such as a CPU on the solder bumps (on an F surface (10F) side).

However, when an outermost build-up conductive layer 22 (outermost conductive layer 33) has an uneven thickness or has an extremely thin portion, reliability of the connection between the outermost build-up conductive layer 22 and the electronic component is likely to decrease, that is, mountability of the electronic component is likely to decrease. In contrast, in the wiring board 10 of the present embodiment, the copper foil layer (33A) of an outermost conductive layer 33 is thicker than the copper foil layer (32A) of a non-outermost conductive layer 32, and a sufficient thickness of an outermost conductive layer 33 is ensured to some extent. Therefore, reliability of the connection between an outermost conductive layer 33 and an electronic component can be improved and mountability of the electronic component can be improved.

Further, the proportion of the copper foil layer (32A or 33A) in a conductive layer (32 or 33) is larger in an outermost conductive layer 33 than in a non-outermost conductive layer 32. Therefore, flatness of an outermost conductive layer 33 is improved, and mountability of an electronic component is improved. Further, since a thicker copper foil can have a larger anchor effect on an insulating resin layer 21 below the copper foil, a peel strength between the copper foil layer (33A) of the outermost conductive layer 33, on which the electronic component is mounted, and the outermost insulating resin layer 21 is improved.

Further, a relatively thick copper foil is used in the subtractive method in which a conductive layer is formed by etching, and a relatively thin copper foil is used in the modified semi-additive method in which a conductive layer is formed by plating. Therefore, by forming the outermost conductive layers 33 using the subtractive method and forming the non-outermost conductive layers 32 using the modified semi-additive method, the copper foil layer (33A) of each of the outermost conductive layers 33 and the copper foil layer (32A) of each of the non-outermost conductive layers 32 can be easily formed to have different thicknesses.

Here, it is also possible to form all of the build-up conductive layers 22 using the subtractive method. However, a conductive layer formed using the modified semi-additive method can have a denser (finer) wiring patterns than a conductive layer formed using the subtractive method. Therefore, by forming the outermost conductive layers 33 using the subtractive method and forming the non-outermost conductive layers 32 using the modified semi-additive method, a dense (fine) wiring pattern can be formed while mountability of the electronic component is improved. Further, by forming a dense (fine) wiring pattern, the number of conductive layers can be reduced and thus the wiring board 10 can be reduced in thickness.

Further, in the present embodiment, the core conductive layers 12 are also formed using the subtractive method and the copper foil layers (12A) of the core conductive layers 12 are relatively thick. As a result, the core base material 50 is thick as compared to a case where the core conductive layers 12 are formed using the modified semi-additive method, and thus, during a manufacturing process, the core base material 50 is easy to be conveyed.

Other Embodiments

The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments. For example, the embodiments described below are also included in the technical scope of the present invention. Further, in addition to the embodiments described below, the present invention can also be embodied in various modified forms within the scope without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

(1) In the above embodiment, two non-outermost conductive layers 32 are provided on each of the front and back sides of the core substrate. However, it is also possible that one or three or more non-outermost conductive layers 32 are provided on each of the front and back sides of the core substrate.

(2) In the above embodiment, the via conductors (11D) penetrate the copper foil (11C) on the F surface (11F) side and the core substrate 11, but do not penetrate the copper foil (11C) on the B surface (11B) side. However, as illustrated in FIGS. 12 and 13, it is also possible that the via conductors (11D) penetrate the copper foil (11C) on the B surface (11B) side. In this case, as illustrated in FIGS. 12 and 13, it is also possible that the via conductors (IID) each have a shape that is gradually reduced in diameter from the F surface (11F) toward the B surface (11B), or that the via conductors (11D) each have a middle-constricted shape that is gradually reduced in diameter from both the F surface (11F) and the B surface (11B) toward a deep side and in which small diameter side ends of two tapered halves are communicatively connected.

(3) In the above embodiment, the “metal foil” of the present invention is a copper foil. However, without being limited to this, for example, it is also possible that the metal foil is a nickel foil, a titanium foil, or the like.

(4) In the above embodiment, all of the conductive layers (12, 32, 33) have substantially the same thickness. However, for example, it is also possible that each of the core conductive layers 12 and the outermost conductive layers 33 is thicker than each of the non-outermost conductive layers 32, or vice versa.

(5) In the above embodiment, all of the insulating resin layers 21 have the same thickness. However, for example, it is also possible that each of the outermost insulating resin layers 21 is thicker than each of the non-outermost insulating resin layers 21, or vice versa.

(6) In the above embodiment, the thickness of each of the insulating resin layers 21 is substantially the same as the thickness of the core substrate 12. However, it is also possible that the thickness of each of the insulating resin layers 21 is different from the thickness of the core substrate 12.

In a wiring board, improvement in mountability of an electronic component is desired.

A wiring board according to an embodiment of the present invention is formed by alternately laminating multiple conductive layers and multiple insulating resin layers on both front and back surfaces of a core substrate, the conductive layers being each formed by laminating a plating layer on a metal foil layer.
